How to Create a Digital Wedding Invitation: FAQs
If you’re thinking of going down the e-vite route, creating your own wedding invitations can feel like a daunting task, but it needn’t be!
How to create online wedding invitations?
There are a few different ways to create online wedding invitations. You can either choose to purchase ready made templates, or commission a stationery designer to create something unique to you.
“When you choose an editable template, generally the file is set up for you so it can take as little as five minutes for couples to adjust the file and download it,” says Lydia.
“If you want a more bespoke service, you’ll need to reach out to a wedding stationer who will talk through your vision with you and bring it as close to a reality as possible,” she adds.
“Find a stationer whose style you love so you still get to have fun throughout the process. After all, designing the invitations should be a fun and exciting start to your wedding journey, so you want to do it with someone who understands you and what you’re looking for.”
How much do online wedding invitations cost?
“You can buy a digital wedding invitation template online for as little as £10 nowadays – these tend to be editable files, set up ready for couples to simply adjust the wording to suit their day,” says Lydia.
“If you’re looking for something more bespoke, however, with more detailed illustrations tailored to your wedding (something I do more of), you’d be looking at a budget of around £60 to £150.”
How can I make wedding invitations online for free?
“If you’re looking for something quick and easy, then an editable digital download through programmes such as Templett and Canva can be great,” says Lydia.
It’s worth noting that some of these can be free, while others offer free trials, which might be all you need to create your invitations.
You can also use specialist wedding invitation websites, some of which have free templates though even if you do have to pay, the cost is still smaller than that of printed invitations.
Are digital wedding invitations tacky?
“Absolutely not!” says Hitched editor Zoe Burke. “The quality of some wedding e-vites nowadays is undeniable.
“What’s more, many companies have developed the guest experience to make opening and reading digital invites feel special. It doesn’t just have to be as simple as opening an email – it can be something as elaborate as clicking on a link to see an individually addressed virtual envelope opening as an invitation emerges.
“It’s worth considering, however, that some older, perhaps less tech-savvy family members may not have an email account (sorry, grandad) and if that’s the case, we’d suggest using a downloadable wedding invitation template and using a wedding invitation printing service to get as many as you need for those guests.”
What wording do you use for digital wedding invitations?
“It’s pretty much the same as for printed invitations,” says Zoe. “You need to start by deciding whether you want to go for something formal or fun.
“The most traditional invitations come from the bride’s parents and will say something such as: ‘Mr & Mrs Tom Jones request the pleasure of your company at the marriage of their daughter Sasha Jones to Owen Hughes at Asylum Chapel, London, on 14th September 2025 at 2pm, and afterwards at AMP Studios.’
“But you can make your wedding invitation wording as personal to you as you like by including both sets of parents, stepparents or choosing not to include them at all and just having your own names on there.
“Of course, you could also jazz things up with informal and even funny language – just remember to keep the most basic information on the wedding e-vites themselves and direct guests to your wedding website for further details,” she adds.
How to send digital wedding invitations?
The most popular way to send digital wedding invitations is over email – it’s as easy as attaching your invite and pressing send. Then guests can either open them on their desktop or phone. Other ways to send include messaging services such as Whatsapp.
